12-2017 Christmas Time Sealings

 When we received two invitation to sealings within a few days of each other in December, we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to spend some Christmas time with our daughters in Utah!
 Our first trip to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple!
 So many of her companions were part of the wedding party!

 Fun to run into yet another sister from our mission!
 More missionaries at the reception!
 And round about the area:)
We love getting visits in Provo too!
At the Salt Lake Temple:
 Met another Taichung missionary on Temple Square!
 After the temple, we went to JDawgs for a quick bite. While walking back to our car, we heard friendly voices calling out to us from across the street! The mother of our missionary spotted us from within the restaurant they were eating at, and the family came out to greet us:)
 Nothing is better than holidays with family!
 Missionaries are indeed part of our family!
 Starting the grandbabies early on the Blickenstaff egg nog tradition!
 What a stache!
 Love to be with my daughters:)
 Back in California, another Christmas dinner is to be enjoyed. Again, missionaries are part of the family!
 Egg nog in the back right corner is almost gone! Anybody else like my son-in-law who has to have Flamin' Hot Cheetos with his macaroni and cheese?!
 Christmas morning:
 Another Blickenstaff tradition...sweet rolls...for my sweet family!
